Captain Morgan Pentland hasn’t had an easy life, but she has worked hard to create a great career for herself as a pilot patrolling the vast Queensland coastline. Immediately curious when customs agent Rafe Daniels joins her crew, she soon realises there is more to him than meets the eye. What Morgan doesn’t realise is that Rafe has her under surveillance as a suspected leak in a terrorist plot. It’s only when their plane is shot down that they realise they have limited time to prevent an attack that could devastate Sydney.
What first drew me to this book was the Queensland setting, but I soon realised there was much more to be enjoyed about this novel. As well as portraying the amazing beauty of North Queensland brilliantly, the author has also created a strong female character that most of us would be able to relate to. The authors love for North QLD and flying shines through the character of Morgan, as she faces and deals with danger while also realising that despite her tragic past, she is worthy of being loved.
The pace of the story is great, with many action packed scenes interspersed with the suspense of who is ultimately behind the terrorist plot. The vastness of North Queensland is the perfect setting for a giant game of cat and mouse, where help may not be forthcoming until it’s too late.
A very enjoyable, well-paced book that kept me intrigued until the end.
